I believe you need UPnP enable and possibly some ports opened on the router.

rickrust, try using Tversity. It does the same thing, and imo is a little more user friendly. There is even a full guide written right here on the forums for step-by-step instructions on how to set it up.

Before you start opening ports and troubleshooting stuff, make sure that you are following the correct steps to stream video to the Xbox360:

1) Make sure you have a WIRED (not wireless) connection to the router from both the PC and the Xbox
2) Make sure you have Windows Media Player 11 (or up) OPEN on the PC
3) In WMP, click "Library" and then on "Add to Library". Click "Advanced Options" and "Add" the folder that contains the video file your want to stream.
4) On your Xbox360, go to "My Xbox", then "Video Library". Your PC should be listed on the next screen. Select it. It should now display your shared files.


Good luck to you.
